Perusing the “to record” screen on my DVR last week, I noticed something interesting: This Wednesday’s episodes of FXX’s two popular sitcoms, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and The League, both have similarly titled episodes this week. ‘Sunny’“s is called “Flowers For Charlie,” while The League‘s is titled “Flowers For Taco.”

Is this a crossover? Was it planned in advance? Who knows. It’s a good chance, though, that one or both of the episodes will function as a parody of “Flowers for Algernon,” Daniel Keyes’ 1966 science fiction novel about a simple-minded janitor who undergoes an experiment that suddenly makes him a genius, while also contending with a laboratory mouse who previously had the same experiment done.
